,supported by the Helmsley Charitable Trust. The meeting was attended by fourteen institutions,including four with existing programs. Meeting attendees identified elements key to the VIPmodel [6]: 1. Projects are based on faculty mentor’s scholarship and exploration. 2. Projects are long-term and large-scale, continuing for many years, even decades. 3. Program is curricular and all participating students are graded (A-F; not P/F or S/U). 4. Students can participate and earn credits toward their degrees for at least two years. 5. Learning outcomes focus on the development of both disciplinary and professional skills. 6. Multi-disciplinary teams are encouraged but not required. 7. Dedicated classroom

An important focus in both efforts is on community building for early engineeringstudents. These programs and the synergy with EEES will be described later in this paper.The four EEES components are: • a program of Supplemental Instruction for the key core courses taken by early engineering students.

Other methods are more indirect, such as rolemodeling, practice as part of project and assignments or from the indirect lessons of theUnwritten Syllabus itself.The engineer of 2020 has a set of guiding strategies that may be of help in forming teachingtechniques.

leadership programs can maximize their results through sponsorships and involvement. The program needs to make sure that the lessons learned in the program can be applied to the sponsors through internships and career opportunities. Also, the program may request that the sponsor provide: (a) knowledge to help in structuring the program; (b) lectures and presentations; (c) mentoring activities; and (d) funding.  University support: The university needs to be very committed and provide resources for the development of the activities and high quality professionals willing to dedicate enough time to the development of the students

The course attempts toengage this new type of first semester engineering student with engineering flavored in-classactivities and labs (e.g. wind generator design with wind tunnel testing) to provide a balance tothe non-engineering core courses (Calculus, Chemistry, English) that fill the first year of theengineering curriculum.

Evidence of the increasingacceptance includes the creation of the ASEE Community Engagement Division. While thereare many examples of success, most are driven by individual faculty or small groups and thereare few examples of large scale implementation of engagement. For community engagement toachieve its potential, models that can be replicated or adapted and integrated into the fabric of theinstitutions must be developed. There is still skepticism about service-learning as noted in the2014 ASEE report [4]. It

students’ feedback on the course. One of the biggestlessons learned during the initial offerings of the course was the strong student desire for a sitevisit where students could physically see the mitigation measures or resiliency issues that arediscussed. Therefore, more local and project site visits are now incorporated into the course. Aspresented in Table 1, students had an opportunity to work on a variety of projects focused ondeveloping solutions to mitigate climate-induced challenges within the local communities. Thiswas well received by students and project sponsors. Typically, some students are uncertainabout how to approach a large scale, community issue that was not a straightforward engineeringdesign.
